UH set the tone from the opening snap, dominating on both sides of the ball to cruise to a 56-21 victory over USF Saturday afternoon at TDECU Stadium.
After only scoring 13 first quarter offensive points coming into the game, UH’s offense was finally able to overcome its first-quarter woes against USF.
On the first play of the game, senior running back Mulbah Car found a hole and picked up 26 yards on the ground. Junior quarterback Clayton Tune followed Car’s big run with a 21-yard rush of his own.
To cap off the drive, Tune connected with junior receiver Bryson Smith for a 28-yard touchdown pass, giving Houston its first opening drive touchdown of 2020.
